Vote Chess: Game 2

henryzz · 2013-07-07, 12:50

Well the first mersenneforum game of vote chess has now finished. Now to think about the next game.
First of all who wants to play?
Do we want to try and keep teams as they are? Do we want to randomly select teams?

I might be out of this next one because if it takes months I'll possibly be in school by then.

I'll be willing to play in the next one.

I had a great time and am willing to play again. I'd personally like to keep our team intact with the addition of another teammate or two.

I think that is what I would prefer as well.

I'm keen to take part again too.

It's also necessary to have an arbiter again, and we should not take Serge's hard work in the first game for granted. Would you be willing to continue in this role, Serge?

I know that I am going to regret saying this, but yes, sure. ;-)

Yessss!!
Thanks so much.

Let's try making a tentative list, based on recent participation in this and other threads, of players for game 2.

Game 1 players who will definitely play in game 2:
LaurV, WMHalsdorf (former Shaolin Pirates)
henryzz, richs, Brian-E (former Toxic Geckos)

Other possible players:
Dubslow, Zeta-Flux, science_man_88, davieddy, bsquared

Any comments? Have I forgotten anyone? Can anyone from the second list be definitively moved to the first list which is still a little short in numbers? Can any completely new players be found and enticed into a team?

Please count me in, although my ELO would be poor

Wonderful news!

I wonder if the team captains will have a fight over which team gets which players as the enthusiasm surges and more people express interest.
